If, at the time of enforcement of any of [Sections 6 through 11], a court holds that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated therein are unreasonable under the circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access and will receive to trade secrets of the Company Group and other Confidential Information, Intellectual Property Rights and Company-Related Developments, the parties hereto agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company, each member of the Company Group (as intended third party beneficiaries hereunder) and their respective successors or permitted assigns shall, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, be entitled # from any court of competent jurisdiction to specific performance and/or injunctive relief, and entitled to other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without # the posting of any bond or other security, # the necessity of showing actual damages or # the necessity of showing that monetary damages are an inadequate remedy), and # to the payment by Executive of the attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by each member of the Company Group in the course of enforcing the terms of this Agreement, including demonstrating the existence of a breach or threatened breach of any of the terms of [Sections 6 through 11]. Any such remedies will be in addition to, and not in lieu of, damages and remedies available under law or otherwise, including monetary damages. Executive agrees that the restrictions contained in [Sections 6 through 11] are reasonable, and to the extent Executive breaches any of the restrictions in [Sections 6 through 11], the Company shall have the right to suspend, terminate and/or recoup any Severance Payments.

Breach. Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are fair, reasonable, and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Company, that the Company will suffer irreparable harm in the event of any actual or threatened breach by Executive, and that it is difficult to measure in money the damages which will accrue to the Company by reason of a failure by Executive to perform any of Executive’s obligations under this Section 6. Accordingly, if the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates institutes any action or proceeding to enforce their rights under this Section 6, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Executive hereby waives the claim or defense that the Company or its Affiliates has an adequate remedy at law, Executive shall not claim that any such remedy at law exists, and Executive consents to the entry of a restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other preliminary, provisional, or permanent court order to enforce this Agreement, and expressly waives any security that might otherwise be required in connection with such relief. Executive also agrees that any request for such relief by the Company shall be in addition and without prejudice to any claim for monetary damages and/or other relief which the Company might elect to assert. In the event Executive violates any provision of this Section 6. In the event Executive violates any provision of this Section 6, and the Company is the completely prevailing party in such action, the Company shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses of enforcement, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the time periods set forth above shall be extended for the period of time Executive remains in violation of the provisions. Conversely, in the event that Executive is the completely prevailing party in any action brought by the Company with respect to this Section 6, then Executive shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses of defense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and shall thereafter be relieved of all restrictions contained in this Section 6. In the event any provision of this Section is found to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction it is agreed the remaining and other provisions shall be enforced and the provision so found unenforceable shall be reformed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent allowed by law.
